About this guide
1 Preparation This chapter describes the contents of the software CDs and downloads and explains the prerequisites for installing HP Replication Solutions Manager.
Downloading the software To download the software free from the Web: 1. Go to the HP StorageWorks Continuous Access EVA web site: (You can use this site whether you use HP Continuous Access EVA or not.) http://h18006.www1.hp.com/products/storage/software/conaccesseva/index.html 2. Click Software & drivers. 3. Download the replication manager server software. Only one download is required. 4. If you have Windows hosts, download the replication manager host agent software for Windows.
Before you upgrade the software, ensure that the required minimum versions of HP Replication Solutions Manager server software, HP Replication Solutions Manager host agent software, and HP Command View EVA are installed. See HP StorageWorks EVA replication software consolidated release notes and HP StorageWorks Command View EVA release notes for the minimum required versions.
• Install the software on the SMA using the setup files and Add/Remove Programs, not the SMA software interface. • Immediately install the HP JREserver to facilitate obtaining the preferred JRE for browsing to the replication manager. A supported JRE is required on the browsing client. For supported JRE versions, see HP StorageWorks EVA software compatibility reference. For installation instructions, see HP StorageWorks JREserver installation instructions.
Ensuring successful authorization After creating these groups, complete the following steps: 1. Access the Local Security Policy feature on the Windows operating system. The Local Security Settings window opens. 2. Select Security Settings > Local Policies > User Rights Assignment. 3. Double-click the Access this computer from the network policy in the right Content pane. 4. Click Add User or Group. 5. Add the users you have created to this permission.
Oracle account If you plan to use Oracle replication features, an Oracle database administrator must create an account for HP Replication Solutions Manager on each Oracle database. NOTE: The Oracle features require a license. The process for using Oracle on the replication manager follows: 1. The Oracle database administrator creates the HP Replication Solutions Manager account on the Oracle databases. 2. Install the HP Replication Solutions Manager server software. 3.
2 Server software This chapter describes how to install and remove the server software. Installing the server software The default installation directory is C:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\; however, you can install the server software in another directory. NOTE: If you specify an alternate installation directory, the installation software will not detect the previous installation and will allow the software to be installed again.
11. The installer displays the default database port. 12. Click Check Port Availability. • If a Port available message appears, click Next. • If the port is not available, enter an alternate port number in the Port box. 13. Repeat Step 12 if necessary. When the installation has finished, the installation summary window opens. 14. Click Finish. Alternatively, open a command window and enter the following command to start the installation: setupWin32.
The files in these directories were modified using Storage Area Manager. Do not remove these directories if you think you will use the host to link to previous jobs and logs. 2. Back up the replication database using the Export feature. For instructions, see HP StorageWorks Replication Solutions Manager administrator guide. 3. Remove the server software from the management server. For instructions, see "Removing the server software" on page 19. 4. Install the new server software on the management server.
Server software
3 Host agent software This chapter describes how to install and remove the host agent software. An installation is required on every host that interacts with the replication manager. Operating system requirements This section describes the operating system-specific requirements for installing the replication manager host agent. HP OpenVMS on Alpha servers The following SNIA libraries are required on the HP OpenVMS (Alpha) host to ensure that the host agent software works properly: • HBA_VMS.
Sun Solaris Ensure that you install the appropriate SNIA libraries on the Solaris host; otherwise, incorrect HBA information is reported in the replication manager HBA/ports tab of the Enabled Host properties window. This condition does not affect HBA operation, only the information reported to the replication manager. The following SNIA libraries are required: • For JNI and Sun native HBAs, install the JNI SNIA Fibre Channel HBA library. The package name is JNIsnia.
Operating system File name HP HP-UX 11.11 (11i v1) HP HP-UX 11.23 PI (PA) setupHPPA.bin HP HP-UX 11.23 PI (IA) setupHPIA64.bin HP OpenVMS (on Alpha servers) HP-AXPVMS-RSMHA-V0100--1.PCSI;1 HP OpenVMS (on Integrity servers) HP-IA64VMS-RSMHA-V02001--1.PCSI;1 HP Tru64 UNIX setupTru64.bin IBM AIX setupAix.bin Linux (Red Hat and SuSE) setupLinux.bin Microsoft Windows (32–bit) setupwin32.exe Microsoft Windows (64–bit) setupwinIA64.exe Sun Solaris setupSolaris.bin 3.
To add other user names, run the add/identifier HPHAADM command again, and enter the appropriate user name with the grant/id HPHAADM command. Verifying the installation Verify that the host agent software was installed successfully: • On Windows hosts, HP StorageWorks Replication Solutions Manager Host Agent is listed in Add/Remove Programs.
4 Troubleshooting This chapter describes known problems and suggested resolutions for troubleshooting the software installation. Insufficient space in the temporary directory When you install HP Replication Solutions Manager, the contents of the .jar file are extracted to a temporary directory. If there is insufficient space in the directory, an error message may appear.
